Captures at Wychwood Forest , etc. 
- — On tlie 4th of June I met, by ap- 
pointment, the Rev. H. A. Pickard, 
at Wychwood Forest, a fine locality 
for Steropes Paniscus , and where, a 
few years ago, we took it in plenty. 
The day was fine, but very windy, 
which will, perhaps, account for a 
rather meagre list of captures ; yet 
nothing could be more enjoyable 
than the ramble through the fine un- 
dulating glades and avenues of the 
forest. Excepting the commoner 
species, 'our list included 8. panis- 
cus. , P. cenea, A. candidata, A. syl- 
vata, I. lactearia, C. taminata , M. 
biriviata, M. euphorbiata, A. plagiata, 
Crcmbus perlellus, and Adela fibu- 
iellct ; while the butterflies were re- 
presented by T. rubi , N. lucina , A. 
eupb/rosyne, P. agestis, T. alveolus, 
T. tages , and P. sylvanus. 
Amongst many common things I 
have lately got, C. spinula, N. cris- 
tulalis , F. glyphica and Mi, F. punc- 
taria, T. punctularia, F. Jieparata, 8. 
clatlirata, F. atomaria, A. remutata, 
F. albulata and decolorata, C. pro- 
pugnata, ferrUgata, and nnidxntaria, 
T. vdriata, G. corylata , P. silaceata, 
some Fupithecice, C. prasinana, A. 
baumanniana. 
Though there is nothing very 
wonderful in this list, it may prove 
interesting to some of your readers ; 
and I quite endorse your corres- 
pondent “Orthosia’s” wish to see 
more such lists in your pages. I 
have been moving about a good deal 
lately, or I would have sent you a 
list previously to this. I find 
moving interferes with working a 
locality well. — John T. D. Llew-
